areayhi all -- one of my instances requires me to compile BIND9 from source -- i'm testing now but each time it's (obviously) taking a long time... should i be cross-compiling or making a deb package to speed things up or is compiling on the instance the best way to go? sorry if that's a stupid question it's just that /proc/cpuinfo shows some weird stuff and i'm not really sure what to do:/07:05
